What is Paraquat Poisoning: Risks and Treatment about?

Paraquat is a highly toxic bipyridylium herbicide primarily absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, with a fatal dose of 5-10 grams. It causes severe cellular disruption and multi-organ failure, with death typically occurring 2-5 days post-ingestion. Treatment options include gastric lavage, adsorbents, and blood purification, while postmortem findings often reveal significant damage to the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, lungs, and liver.
